Building Paraxial Optical Skyrmions Using Rational Maps
A simple mathematical expression based on rational maps to describe all optical paraxial skyrmion known to date, including Néel‐type and Bloch‐type skyrmions, bimerons, and anti‐skyrmions, is introduced. This expression is derived solely from topological considerations and outlines the rules that fu...
